Frank Mir meeting Daniel Cormier on November 3 in Oklahoma City

When Zuffa needed someone to step up and face unbeaten Strikeforce heavyweightDaniel Cormier it didn’t take long for Frank Mir let his employers know he was the man for the job. However, if the challenge of stopping Cormier’s momentum wasn’t stiff enough, it now looks like Mir will be taking him on with the added pressure of fighting the former Olympian in his proverbial backyard.

According to multiple reports, Cormier and Mir will mix it up in early November with the event taking place in Oklahoma City. Cormier attended college at Oklahoma State.
